This was inspired by my son. Everyday I watch him play and it takes me back. Back to simple days that maybe didn't always seem so simple. Days where my biggest decision was which tree to climb... first :) Come on, you know thats a tough choice ;) Not that we didn't struggle or have our disfunctions as a family but we had love and fun. I was blessed. I realize that many people do not have such a fortunate past and the memories are not so dear. I also know a REDEEMER that loves us and redeems what was lost or stolen. He is the perfect father, friend, lover and savior.

Let me encourage you today to remember. Take an account of the blessings from your redeemer and friend. Remember the faith you had as a little one. The vulnerable trust you had that never let you question your next meal or hug.

Remember some of your firsts... first tree climb... bike ride... time to the beach...

Love this! What a great way to remind adults to take a step back and remember what it was like to be little. Faith like a child... that is a tough one sometimes. I think as adults, we are a bit jaded with the world itself. We forget sometimes that God is BIGGER than all of it.Thanks for sharing this. :0)Found you through We Encourage. :0)
